Electrocardiographic Abnormalities and Treatment with Benznidazole among Children with Chronic Infection by Trypanosoma cruzi: A Retrospective Cohort Study [PDF]
Background: Chronic infection by Trypanosoma cruzi could cause heart conduction disturbances. We sought to analyze electrocardiographic abnormalities among children with chronic T. cruzi infection with and without trypanocidal treatment with benznidazole.

Kepler rapidly rotating giant stars [PDF]
Rapidly rotating giant stars are relatively rare and may represent important stages of stellar evolution, resulting from stellar coalescence of close binary systems or accretion of sub-stellar companions by their hosting stars. In the present letter we report 17 giant stars observed in the scope of the Kepler space mission exhibiting rapid rotation ...

Classical and Quantum Data Interaction in Programming Languages: A Runtime Architecture [PDF]
We propose a runtime architecture that can be used in the development of a quantum programming language and its programming environment. The proposed runtime architecture enables dynamic interaction between classical and quantum data following the restriction that a quantum computer is available in the cloud as a batch computer, with no interaction ...

Debris disks among Kepler solar rotational analog stars [PDF]
Observations of circumstellar disks provide a powerful tool for our understanding of planetary systems dynamics. Analogs to the Solar System asteroid belts, debris disks result from the collision of the remaining solid material of the planet formation process.

Transient superdiffusion and long-range correlations in the motility patterns of trypanosomatid flagellate protozoa [PDF]
We report on a diffusive analysis of the motion of flagellate protozoa species. These parasites are the etiological agents of neglected tropical diseases: leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania braziliensis, African sleeping sickness caused by Trypanosoma brucei, and Chagas disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi.

Multifractal detrended moving average analysis of Kepler stars with surface differential rotation traces [PDF]
A multifractal formalism is employed to analyse high-precision time-series data of \textit{Kepler} stars with surface differential rotation traces. The multifractal detrended moving average analysis (MFDMA) algorithm has been explored to characterize the multi-scale behaviour of the observed time series from a sample of 662 stars selected with ...

Uncovering the Spread of Chagas Disease in Argentina and Mexico [PDF]
Chagas disease is a neglected disease, and information about its geographical spread is very scarse. We analyze here mobility and calling patterns in order to identify potential risk zones for the disease, by using public health information and mobile phone records.
